Mix yeast, sugar, 1 t salt, and 1/2 cup flour. Blend

dough in a lightly greased bowl. Cover and let dough
rise in a warm place 1/2 hour. Pat dough into a
lightly greased 12-inch pizza pan or onto a lightly
greased baking sheet. Press up edges to make a slight
rim. Fry bacon until crisp. Remove from grease and
drain on absorbent paper. Add onions to bacon grease;
cook slowly until tender but not brown. Sprinkle
onion, bacon, cumin, 1/2 t salt and pepper over dough.
Bake at 400 Degrees F. for 20 minutes. Blend egg yolk
and sour cream. Pour over onions. Bake for 10 to 15
minutes longer or until golden brown and sour cream is
set. Serve warm or at room temperature.
